Polkascan internationalization: Korean translation

About Polkascan OS (for Polkadot Runtime Environments)

Polkascan OS provides an open-source block explorer for any Substrate-based blockchain. Polkascan OS consists of a number of distinct software artifacts which collectively orchestrate Polkascan. The Harvester transforms a Substrate node’s raw data into relational data, with the help of Substrate Interface Library and the SCALE Codec Library. The produced relational data is disseminated by the Explorer API and in turn made accessible to end-users by the Explorer GUI. We have chosen to provide full Docker support for all our artifacts, hence all our repositories have Dockerfiles in their root. All these open-source software artifacts and many others can be found in the Polkascan organization on GitHub (https://github.com/polkascan).

Internationalization of Polkascan OS Explorer GUI

The Polkascan OS Explorer GUI (https://github.com/polkascan/polkascan-pre-explorer-gui) is an Angular application. Previous work has implemented internationalization & localization standards for the Angular application. Currently the application supports the English and Chinese languages.

Additional translations of Polkascan OS Explorer GUI

This issue specifies a request to extend the Angular application with additional languages. This in turn will make Polkascan OS available and user-friendly to a worldwide audience in multiple languages and with multiple localization settings.

Deliverables

• Korean translation for the Angular application.
• Use our feature branch: 'https://github.com/polkascan/polkascan-explorer-gui/tree/feature/i18n'
• Modifications of the Korean language-pack: https://github.com/polkascan/polkascan-explorer-gui/blob/feature/i18n/src/assets/i18n/ko.json
• Please note that some values have already been set in the Korean language-pack. These are machine translations and very likely require modification and thorough review.
• Written memo (in English) to explain why translated terms or transliterations were chosen for specific technical notions and terminology. Ideally this memo provides a reference to other places where similar translated terms or transliterations were chosen. I.e. how would the term extrinsic be translated?

Skills

• Korean language native.
• Conceptual understanding of Blockchain, Polkadot and Substrate.
• Capable of translation or transliteration of technical notions and terminology.
• Our preference goes to a current Polkadot Ambassador.
